Chapter Twelve. Jaslyn “Are you new to this pack? Everyone knows that Alpha Zeeland has taken a new Luna, and who else would it be other than her?” Reeta turned a scornful gaze at me.I was the one he'd chosen, but there was no use arguing with her.Alyse gave me a taunting smile. “Wrap that gown up for me.” She ordered Reeta.“But this customer asked for it first.” Suxan argued boldly, stepping forward.I placed a hand on her shoulder. “Don’t worry.” I said softly.“Of course you wouldn't bother. You can't afford it anyway. You just wanted to show off to impress us. You should be thankful that Luna arrived in time to save your cheap tricks from getting exposed.” Reeta laughed as she moved past us.“I’m sorry, Miss.” Suxan faced me with an apologetic smile.I nodded. “It’s fine. Can you take me to see other dresses?” I requested calmly.“Of course, Miss.” She led the way through pretty dresses on hangers, and my eyes caught on one. It stood out indeed. It was a
Chapter Thirteen. Jaslyn I was in a fairly sour mood tonight. It was the night when the lower packs were coming to pay homage or whatever it was that Dmitri had told me. Yesterday afternoon had gone well indeed and I could still picture how epic the manager's face had looked like, in my mind. Reeta's hadn't been any different too. I'd gotten the dress like I said I would, and now it lay on my bed alongside its black tiara and my favorite cologne.I had a queer habit of pairing up my perfume according to my mood. The one I was using tonight was in a purple bottle, and was a combination of pleasant seductive fragrances. As for the reason why I was in a sour mood, Alyse was the culprit. For whatever reason, she'd convinced Zeeland to make me join the servants in their daily chores. I'd overheard them when I had gone over to deliver a message to him from one of the council members. My heart had gone cold when I heard him tell her that she should remain patient unt
Chapter Fourteen ZeelandHer eyes were wide open, and mine narrowed. “What do you think you're doing?” I asked, my eyes unintentionally lowering down to her exposed breasts through the see-through night clothes she was dressed in.“N-nothing,” she stuttered. “I thought I heard you mumble something.” I forced my eyes away from the view of her breasts and to her face again. From our angle, she was pressed against my sides. Her excuse was a lame one since I hadn't been sleeping. I'd heard her when she suddenly awoke, and while I'd been worried, I didn't open my eyes to see what the problem was. And Raven had been giving me a hard time about it.When she suddenly leaned close to me, I thought I'd explode with the burst of my nerves. Throughout the time at the party, I had done my best to ignore her. But it'd been a futile attempt. I was aware of everything that had to do with her. And oh, how beautiful she looked in that dress of hers. And her perfume was so intoxi
I slid my leg deftly around the pole, landing elegantly on the ground to the loud hoots and cheers of the masked men down the stage. I smiled brightly at them, my eyes scanning for the customer my boss had told me about. It didn't take long. I strayed down with purpose towards him, my steps matching the beat of the loud music booming in the club.“You look dashing, Mister,” I purred seductively when I finally got to him, bending slightly so my cleavage was exposed. Holding his gaze, I pulled away the glass of wine in his hand and poured it slowly over my chest. It trailed down to my belly. “The private booth,” the man finally said, his gaze moving leeringly over my body.“I’m expensive.” I replied promptly.I watched eagerly as he reached into the wallet and pulled out a wad of dollar bills, and placed it in my hand. “There’s a lot more where that came from.” He said invitingly.I scoffed inwardly. Men and showing off.My hands closed around the dollar bills, and tilting my head sli
I'd rather have a deal with the devil himself than date someone again. I thought to myself as I chugged down my fourth glass of whiskey sour.Only three days ago was I proud to have a caring and sweet loving man as my boyfriend. Who would have thought I was just being used.I hissed in annoyance and beckoned to the bartender.“Another glass please.”“You don't look so okay.” she muttered as she stretched out a filled up glass my way.“Someone messed with your heart?”“Well...” I exhaled sharply.“You can say that.”She shook her head and shoot me a sympathetic look which I find rather annoying.“Men are like that. You can never trust them fully.”I nodded rather quickly. They are never to be trusted.“They will pretend to love you for a year if you're not so lucky two to three years but all that is just to get free access to your pants continuously.”A sigh of relief escaped my lips when her attention was called for at the end side of the bar. I know she was only trying to console me in he
I narrowed my eyes.“What do you want to hear?”“Anything princess. But I would prefer to hear you say the 'yes’ word.I snorted and turned my head to look at him fully.“I won't accept so just leave me the hell alone.” initially I meant to say the words nicely but it came out a little bit harsh.“I so wished to do as you want princess but I'm afraid that will be hard to do." I didn't miss the signature smile on his face.“Then I'll so do you the honour of leaving you first." I was on my feet and out of the building before he could stop me. The chill evening air greeted me the moment I stepped out making me shivered a little.I looked ahead of me, the only path to my house looks so deserted and quiet. Only someone with half a brain will venture that lane by this time, much less a lady.I pictured the many things that could happen if I decide to go on that path, I shook my head almost immediately. I'm taking a cab even though I've not got much cash left on me. Speaking of which, where's
I shut my eyes as tight as possible to escape the rays of sun entering the room. But that might as well be me putting water in a pot without a base.I rolled lazily out of bed and walked lazily and half asleep to the bathroom. I was about to wrap my towel around my body when my mother walked into my room.“Good morning mother.” I said and walked over to my dressing table.“Morning darling, did you sleep well?” I nodded and started applying lotion on my body. “Aren't you going to be late for work?”“I'll but not until I give you this.” she walked over to the dressing table and stretched out a parcel yo me. “Happy birthday darling.”I choked back a tear. She never fails to buy me a present every birthday I celebrate and she's always the first to wish me happy birthday.Not in this case. My inner mind scowled In my head drawing my attention back to the previous night.How had he know today's my birthday? Is he stalking me? No, no, he wouldn't do that.“Isn't it pretty?” my mother said c
My phone buzzed at that moment. Cursing at the fact that I hadn't left it at home, I brought it out of my coat pocket. My blood ran cold as I stared at the caller ID. With shaky hands, I received the call.“My gold mine,” Nathan's lazy drawl filled my ears.“You sonofabitch!” I rasped, almost stumbling. Little stones rolled over and fell down the cliff. “Oh, you don't have to take out your anger on me, darling.” His mocking laughter irked me, and I longed to scratch at his face with my nails. “You tricked me.” I swallowed hard, my chest heaving. “No, no, I didn't, darling Iris. You were merely excited at the prospect of getting married to me that you didn't realize what was happening. Why blame me for your foolishness?” He sneered.I almost choked on my words. “I loved you, Nathan. I gave you my all, and this is how you pay me?” I cried.“This isn't a romantic soap opera, Iris, cut the crap. You were foolish. How did you ever think I'd love someone like you?” His words were like h
